    <li>Getting the bounds of a parameterized field or method
        (<a href="#boundOfParameterizedProperty(java.lang.reflect.Method)"><code>boundOfParameterizedProperty</code></a>)</li>
    <li>Getting a short class name (<a href="#getShortName(java.lang.Class)"><code>getShortName</code></a>,

 <div class="block">Returns the name of the given class without package name, but including the names of enclosing
  classes if any. This method is similar to the <a href="https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/lang/Class.html?is-external=true#getSimpleName()" title="class or interface in java.lang" class="externalLink"><code>Class.getSimpleName()</code></a> method, except that
  if the given class is an inner class, then the returned value is prefixed with the outer class
  name. An other difference is that if the given class is local or anonymous, then this method
  returns the name of the parent class.

  <p>The following table compares the various kind of names for some examples:</p>

 <div class="block">Returns <code>true</code> if the given method may possibly be the getter method for a property.
  This method implements the algorithm used by SIS in order to identify getter methods in
  <a href="http://www.geoapi.org/3.0/javadoc/org/opengis/metadata/package-summary.html?is-external=true" class="externalLink">metadata</a> interfaces. We do not rely on naming convention
  (method names starting with "<code>get</code>" or "<code>is</code>" prefixes) because not every methods
  follow such convention (e.g. <a href="http://www.geoapi.org/3.0/javadoc/org/opengis/metadata/quality/ConformanceResult.html?is-external=true#pass()" title="class or interface in org.opengis.metadata.quality" class="externalLink"><code>ConformanceResult.pass()</code></a>).

  <p>The current implementation returns <code>true</code> if the given method meets all the
  following conditions. Note that a <code>true</code> value is not a guaranteed that the given
  method is really a getter. The caller is encouraged to perform additional checks if
  possible.</p>

  <ul>
    <li>The method does no expect any argument.</li>
    <li>The method returns a value (anything except <code>void</code>).</li>
